Thanks for the notice, Cris. This is absolutely not the first time the
combination of ammonium nitrate and bad house keeping has caused an
explosion.. I am amazed that ANYONE can allow oil to accumulate on the
floor of the storage building. For those of you who don't know, ammonium
nitrate and diesel is the favourite explosive in mines. It was fertilizer
and diesel that was used by a terrorist to blow up the government building
in Tulsa OK.

Walter.
